Re: Pet hates
oh wow Inca! :hugs:
I'm a strong believer in karma hun, and she is the original She Bi*** from hell! I'm also a firm believer that no one is ever gone till the last one that remembers them is gone.
My rant is, people who overhear a conversation and decide to be offended by it! Even when its not about them!
I was sitting on my wall in the front garden enjoying the sun a little when my phone rang, it was my sister. She had been told an ancedote about Nan, and as I am doing the family tree she thought it would help.. it was HILARIOUS!
Part of this was about the fact Nan (known as the Dutchess) was a real snob and had her "sunday voice", took her pinny off to answer the phone that sort of thing, I'm sure she was the cause of the saying "I'll finish polishing the cat!"
The story told the tale of her sitting on a wall outside a pub, and tipping backwards off it in the most UNgraceful manner imaginable, and her 1920's bloomers being revealed to all and sundry.. and the fact the one thing she said about it was "And my hand had hovered over the ones I bought in London, the pretty ones!"
Well, you can imagine the laughter this caused between us, especially as I was sitting on the wall, with my back to the street, wearing a summer dress! I was creased up and said "Oh Poor Nan! All I can see is pink chintz and lace!"
Next thing I knew was I was being screamed at by some random woman about minding my own business and keeping my opinions to myself!
She was in a pink and white floral dress and decided I was laughing at her, whilst looking in the opposite direction!
Another time we were in a traffic jam and I had got out of the car, it was FAR too hot to be safe, and was having a smoke watching the police trying to clear the road, a couple came over to me to ask if I knew what the hold up was, and I quiet innocently said, "It's that cow in the middle of the road."
The woman in front of me turned and started yelling abuse that I had a nerve saying that, wasn't I in the road too.. and I pointed past her and said "The cow.. the black and white thing going MOO!" There was a cow runnning amok after getting out of a field!
